The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Karlovy Vary borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Karlovy Vary might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Karlovy Vary!
Rental process FAQ
In the Czech Republic, roundabouts are considered the main road. If you want to leave the circle, you must use the turning signal to notify other drivers.
In addition to the monetary penalty, drivers get special penalty points for traffic violations they commit. The driver, who has got 12 points, loses the right to drive the vehicle for one year. The number of penalty points is different for every violation, and depends on its severity.
Bicycle remains a typical mode of transport in the Czech Republic. It is worth noting that cyclists are also required to follow traffic regulations. Cyclists have a number of privileges on the road – car drivers should always give way to cyclists at intersections and when making maneuvers.
